This book is about the arguments scholarly persons
have about divorce in the 21st Century (Harvey and Mark, 3). It goes
on to discuss that their hopes for the book aren’t only to show pain but also
hope. I think this source will be a good secondary source for my project
because I think the word divorce becomes synonymous with a negative results or
effect. Although there are many surveys, case studies, and written reports that
this is true, as more research is done I have come to realize that in some
cases divorce has had a more positive outcome. This book references multiple
person’s standing on the effects. It is mentioned that two scholars Furstenburg
and Cherlin “proposed that, whenever there is trouble in a marriage, children
will suffer…” (Harvey and Mark, 11). However, through this truth, other
scholars feel that through successfully dealing with these issues and managing
their effects, kids may have a higher self-esteem. They may also be more
sensitive to others problems (Harvey and Mark, 11). Just through these few
examples I think it is evident that this paper will be full of information
describing, and defending why and how certain aspects of a divorce can and will
positively/negatively effect a kid. I plan to use this book as a strong
secondary source to provide multiple examples and explanations.
